Dental Crowns
in Hendon

1. An impression is taken of the tooth that needs restoring.
2. A crown is made in the dental laboratory to fit the tooth precisely and match the neighbouring teeth.
3. The tooth is then prepared and the crown fitted securely on top.
4. Alternatively, here at Hendon Dental we have the CEREC machine which makes same day crowns with no need for impressions.

A crown/onlay could be a good solution for you if you have large discoloured fillings.. Crowns can be used to replace these to give you a more appealing smile.

Additionally, if you have had root canal treatment you will need a crown to protect or cap the restored tooth, allowing you to eat and bite down on it as if it was a real tooth. Crowns are also used to anchor a bridge or denture firmly in place in the mouth.
